The success of an industry depends on optimization of product cost and for achieving above goal Internal selection should be efficient. In the present study an efficient Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) approach has been proposed for quality evaluation and performance appraisal in vendor selection. Vendor selection is a Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) problem influenced by several pa...

Abstract Integrating building information to support decision-making has been a key challenge in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry. The synergy of Building Information Modelling (BIM) Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) is expected improve integration decision-making. aim this paper identify strategies between MCDM BIM. From earliest literature (2009) present, stu...

The maritime industry is a worldwide area of work where critical decisions are made in situations. fact that decision-making based on scientific and mathematical basis has been academic authorities' attendance for the last five decades. In this study, literature review conducted use techniques practices. survey, Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) methods have examined, studies Turkey Interna...

Decision matrix in group decision making problems depends on a lot of criteria. It is essential to know the necessity ofweight or coefficient of each criterion. Accurate and precise selection of weight will help to achieve the intended goal.The aim of this article is to introduce a linear programming model for recognizing the importance of each criterion inmulti criteria group decision making w...

Multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) is one of the main problems which aims to determine best alternative by considering more than criterion in selection process. MCDM has manifold tools and methods that can be applied different fields from finance engineering design. This entry provide a survey on concept, its applications, categories, methods. The final section provides information statistic...

In this study, the performance of the algorithms of whale, Differential evolutionary, crow search, and Gray Wolf optimization were evaluated to operate the Golestan Dam reservoir with the objective function of meeting downstream water needs. Also, after defining the objective function and its constraints, the convergence degree of the algorithms was compared with each other and with the absolut...

The disparity in consumer and organization preferences of information channels is a major concern. Further, making decisions in the presence of a wide range of conflicting criteria through the use of a multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) approach has gained increased prominence in recent years and research in this area has become an important consideration for business operations that invo...

Outsourcing plays an important role in the success of organizations. One of the risks associated with outsourcing is inappropriate contractor selection which significantly influences the implementation of projects in terms of time, quality, and cost. In this study, we applied multi-criteria decision-making techniques in order to determine the best contractor using criteria such as reputation, o...

In helping consumers to make a wise decision in purchasing a personal computer (PC), the use of multi-criteria decision analysis methods is a way to provide ranking of the attributes of PCs and to construct the computer preference index (CPI). This paper employs the Rank Ordered Centroid (ROC) method to do the ranking. The findings reveal that the most important attribute is the CPU, followed b...
